An enchanting and magical tale, full of whimsy and stylistic verve. The author shows a playfulness and love of language that makes one yearn for the simplicity and beauty of a true poet who lives to love language and all the wondrous images it can conjure up and places it can take us to, both internal and external. Beautifully illustrated, this modern-day fable is one that speaks to and touches both heart and soul.

The silhouettes are trying to put together an image of the world they live in; they are writers, journalists, reporters (but also mercenaries, even spies if necessary) and what they find is not too encouraging to them. To them only? Well, we get to see them after their last moral objections are water under the bridge and the process of "fitting in" is under way Their "project" is smuggling people and narcotics from South America into the States using an old plane they're rebuilding for that purpose. We get to watch how the venture takes off the ground, how they get rich Is that, though, what the book is all about? The above sketch is a pretext rather, a canvas to reflect, to go deeper than just skin deep, about and into our world. Who are we? Not the people in the book, but WE, the readers (as well as non-readers). Who are the people representing us we call politicians. What is the whole system not just of one single country but of that strange conglomerate we call "modern world". And what is art? How does a human being, any human being endowed with the ability to reflect and to express his pain, do just that express it ? The author takes us here on a literary journey as well. We'll find, smiling, echoes, not too numerous though, from John Dos Passos, Faulkner, T.S. Eliot and others, certainly not only as author's homage to them, but most of all as his statement that they live although physically dead for so many years that there wasn't just one lost generation "

While a weary traveler sleeps, a naughty wind and a little flame play together, running through the grass, over the bushes and up the trees ... What happens when fire takes over the bush? This beautifully illustrated book is a great resource for opening up discussion about fire with children. Fire means many things. The aboriginal people use fire to burn the bush, create grasslands and prompt new growth. There are many native plants that need the heat of the fires to open their seed pods for germination. While we use fire to heat, cook and process, it can threaten and overwhelm us when it runs wild. It is important in the story for the fire element to be redeemed, to be again contained and cared for, and to give of itself.

The true adventures of David Fairchild, a turn-of-the-century food explorer who traveled the globe and introduced diverse crops like avocados, mangoes, seedless grapes—and thousands more—to the American plate. “Fascinating.”—The New York Times Book Review • “Fast-paced adventure writing.”—The Wall Street Journal • “Richly descriptive.”—Kirkus • “A must-read for foodies.”—HelloGiggles In the nineteenth century, American meals were about subsistence, not enjoyment. But as a new century approached, appetites broadened, and David Fairchild, a young botanist with an insatiable lust to explore and experience the world, set out in search of foods that would enrich the American farmer and enchant the American eater. Kale from Croatia, mangoes from India, and hops from Bavaria. Peaches from China, avocados from Chile, and pomegranates from Malta. Fairchild’s finds weren’t just limited to food: From Egypt he sent back a variety of cotton that revolutionized an industry, and via Japan he introduced the cherry blossom tree, forever brightening America’s capital. Along the way, he was arrested, caught diseases, and bargained with island tribes. But his culinary ambition came during a formative era, and through him, America transformed into the most diverse food system ever created. “Daniel Stone draws the reader into an intriguing, seductive world, rich with stories and surprises. The Food Explorer shows you the history and drama hidden in your fruit bowl. It’s a delicious piece of writing.”—Susan Orlean, New York Times bestselling author of The Orchid Thief and The Library Book

The genesis of this volume was the participation of the editors in an ACMlSIGIR (Association for Computing Machinery/Special Interest Group on Information Retrieval) workshop entitled "Beyond Word Relations" (Hetzler, 1997). This workshop examined a number of relationship types with significance for information retrieval beyond the conventional topic-matching relationship. From this shared participation came the idea for an edited volume on relationships, with chapters to be solicited from researchers and practitioners throughout the world. Ultimately, one volume became two volumes. The first volume, Relationships in the Organization of Knowledge (Bean & Green, 200 I), examines the role of relationships in knowledge organization theory and practice, with emphasis given to thesaural relationships and integration across systems, languages, cultures, and disciplines. This second volume examines relationships in a broader array of contexts. The two volumes should be seen as companions, each informing the other. As with the companion volume, we are especially grateful to the authors who willingly accepted challenges of space and time to produce chapters that summarize extensive bodies of research. The value of the volume clearly resides in the quality of the individual chapters. In naming this volume The Semantics of Relationships: An Interdisciplinary Perspective, we wanted to highlight the fact that relationships are not just empty connectives. Relationships constitute important conceptual units and make significant contributions to meaning.

Fiftieth anniversary reissue of the founding media studies book that helped establish media art as a cultural category. First published in 1970, Gene Youngblood’s influential Expanded Cinema was the first serious treatment of video, computers, and holography as cinematic technologies. Long considered the bible for media artists, Youngblood’s insider account of 1960s counterculture and the birth of cybernetics remains a mainstay reference in today’s hypermediated digital world. This fiftieth anniversary edition includes a new Introduction by the author that offers conceptual tools for understanding the sociocultural and sociopolitical realities of our present world. A unique eyewitness account of burgeoning experimental film and the birth of video art in the late 1960s, this far- ranging study traces the evolution of cinematic language to the end of fiction, drama, and realism. Vast in scope, its prescient formulations include “the paleocybernetic age,” “intermedia,” the “artist as design scientist,” the “artist as ecologist,” “synaesthetics and kinesthetics,” and “the technosphere: man/machine symbiosis.” Outstanding works are analyzed in detail. Methods of production are meticulously described, including interviews with artists and technologists of the period, such as Nam June Paik, Jordan Belson, Andy Warhol, Stan Brakhage, Carolee Schneemann, Stan VanDerBeek, Les Levine, and Frank Gillette. An inspiring Introduction by the celebrated polymath and designer R. Buckminster Fuller—a perfectly cut gem of countercultural thinking in itself—places Youngblood’s radical observations in comprehensive perspective. Providing an unparalleled historical documentation, Expanded Cinema clarifies a chapter of countercultural history that is still not fully represented in the arthistorical record half a century later. The book will also inspire the current generation of artists working in ever-newer expansions of the cinematic environment and will prove invaluable to all who are concerned with the technologies that are reshaping the nature of human communication.
